I-tal Offering


Title: I-tal Offering
Medium: Drawing on paper, scanned, and coloured on Adobe Photoshop
Dimensions: Original drawing A3 size
Date: Summer 2006
Comments: Inspired both by ancient Egyptian tomb paintings and by the Rastafarian “Ital” (“natural” or “vital”) way of life, this image depicts a priest and priestess receiving the Sun’s blessings of warmth and light upon an offering of Ital food. Between them sits the Lion of Judah, symbol of divine strength and majesty.

This image is part of a series inspired by Reggae and Rastafarian culture: Click the thumbnails to see other examples:
